So I was in the bathroom wondering what it would be like to have eye stalks
and then I thought about technology advancing to the point where you could have genetically engineered organs and surgical procedures to alter your looks/function done as easily as going to a tattoo/piercing parlor. I then began to think of all the bad decisions people would make. I think this could be a book!

What are some good and bad ideas people could come up with in this scenario. Working eye stalks, multiple sex organs and colored skin and hair OBVIOUSLY, but what else?

2. Nice. I was thinking tentacles
but a hollow 10 foot toungue also has many, many uses.

"I thought I was kissing Billy!!" *sob*

3. how about your back and legs covered with small but strong little legs
about an inch long so you can slide under all sorts of objects with very little effort. put some suction cups on them and climb up walls

7. After DS1's miniature back legs, I am going to have to ask you to resubmit your answer.
See if you can try a little harder this time, ok? Try to be a little more like DS1.

14. Nothing. I mean, wheels are cool...
DS1 just helped me realize that with a little imagination, we could all have backs and buttocks bristling with strong mini-legs to help us get out of bed or work on a car!

15. i just read a story about a man
who came out from swimming nude in cold water and sat in a wood slat chair; his testicles, shrunken, fit easily between the slats. As his body warmed, his testicles enlarged and hung lower and lower. He tried to stand up and his testicles were stuck between the slats. He called for help and the chair was cut off of him.

10. How about if we were equipped with at least one appendage or limb
that was long enough and agile enough to reach any part of the body without resorting to contortions or using an artificial tool. Say something that could scratch that spot between my shoulder blades. I've always felt that there must be a design flaw in the human anatomy or that activity would be easy to accomplish.

11. I'd like a tail like a cat
not a dog's tail that indiscriminatly cleans off the coffee table, but an extension of my attitude. You know straight up in the air when I feel sassy, furs up when I get pissed off.

17. What about the ears, too?
:)
Kind of like how anime/manga has "catgirls". Not complete furries, just a few of the appendages.

Of course, full centaur-mode for me

19. Cat tail & ears
It's all about the attitude!

The subject line of the OP made me laugh out loud.

31. Wait... but that would give people a way to actually know what a woman is feeling.
... the world would collapse asunder! We're just not ready for that big of a shift in human dynamics! :P

32. I am serious about a book and this is a wonderful expression.
I love the 'extension of my attitude' part. Great imagery

25. I used to lie on the bed and stare at the ceiling.
Looking back, it seems like I wasted too much time doing it. I could have thought while performing other tasks. :shrug:

28. So, a second brain for dreaming while performing more mundane, sensible tasks?
Or are you someone I work with being subtle?
